10. Acids
The Swedish physicist and chemist S. A. Arrhenius defined acids as substances that increase the concentration of H+ when dissolved in water.
Both the Danish chemist J. N. Brønsted and the British chemist T. M. Lowry defined them as proton donors.

11. Bases
Arrhenius defined bases as substances that increase the concentration of OH− when dissolved in water.
Brønsted and Lowry defined them as proton acceptors (react with H+)

12. Strong or Weak?
Strong acids completely dissociate in water; weak acids only partially dissociate.
Strong bases dissociate to metal cations and hydroxide anions in water; weak bases only partially react to produce hydroxide anions.

13. Learning Check

14. Strong vs. Weak Electrolytes
If we remember the common strong acids and bases (table 4.2) and that NH3 is a weak base, we can make reasonable predictions about the electrolytic strength of a lot of compounds!

15. Acid-Base Reactions
In an acid–base reaction, the acid (H2O above) donates a proton (H+) to the base (NH3 above).
Reactions between an acid and a base are called neutralization reactions.
When the base is a metal hydroxide, water and a salt (an ionic compound) are produced.

17. Neutralization Reactions
When a strong acid (like HCl) reacts with a strong base (like NaOH), the net ionic equation is circled below:
HCl(aq) + NaOH(aq)  NaCl(aq) + H2O(l)
H+(aq) + Cl−(aq) + Na+(aq) + OH−(aq) 
Na+(aq) + Cl−(aq) + H2O(l)
H+(aq) + OH−(aq)  H2O(l)

19. Metathesis (Exchange) Reactions
Metathesis comes from a Greek word that means “to transpose.”
It appears as though the ions in the reactant compounds exchange, or transpose, ions, as seen in the equation below.
AgNO3(aq) + KCl(aq)  AgCl(s) + KNO3(aq)

20. Completing and Balancing Metathesis Equations
Steps to follow
Use the chemical formulas of the reactants to determine which ions are present.
Write formulas for the products: cation from one reactant, anion from the other. Use charges to write proper subscripts.
Check your solubility rules. If either product is insoluble, a precipitate forms.
Balance the equation.

21. Which of these are soluble?
(NH4)2S, CaCO3, NaOH, Ag2SO4, Pb(CH3COOH)2

22. Predict the identity of the precipitate…
When MgCl2 and CaS are mixed.
Write the balanced equation.
MgCl2 + CaS = MgS + CaCl2

23. Predict the identity of the precipitate…
When solutions of Fe2(SO4)3 and LiOH are mixed.
Write the balanced equation.
Fe2(SO4)3 + 6 LiOH = 2 Fe(OH)3 + 3 Li2SO4

24. Yes or No? Will a precipitate form when Ba(NO3)2 and KOH are mixed?
Ba(NO3)2 + KOH = Ba(OH)2 + KNO3 (No, both products are soluble)

26. AgNO3(aq) + KCl(aq)  AgCl(s) + KNO3(aq)
Molecular Equation
The molecular equation lists the reactants and products without indicating the ionic nature of the compounds.
AgNO3(aq) + KCl(aq)  AgCl(s) + KNO3(aq)

27. Complete Ionic Equation
In the complete ionic equation all strong electrolytes (strong acids, strong bases, and soluble ionic salts) are dissociated into their ions.
This more accurately reflects the species that are found in the reaction mixture.
Ag+(aq) + NO3−(aq) + K+(aq) + Cl−(aq) 
AgCl(s) + K+(aq) + NO3−(aq)

28. Net Ionic Equation
To form the net ionic equation, cross out anything that does not change from the left side of the equation to the right.
The ions crossed out are called spectator ions, K+ and NO3−, in this example.
The remaining ions are the reactants that form the product—an insoluble salt in a precipitation reaction, as in this example.
Ag+(aq) + NO3−(aq) + K+(aq) + Cl−(aq) 
AgCl(s) + K+(aq) + NO3−(aq)

29. Writing Net Ionic Equations
Write a balanced molecular equation.
Dissociate all strong electrolytes.
Cross out anything that remains unchanged from the left side to the right side of the equation.
Write the net ionic equation with the species that remain.

30. Writing Net Ionic Equations
